The Art of Hydrotherapy

A principle of naturopathy is that proper circulation to internal organs and tissues is a necessity for pain relief, optimal metabolic function, repair of damaged or infected tissue, and for general well-being. Hydrotherapy, the use of alternating hot and cold water, is one of the oldest and most effective ways to improve circulation. 

Eliminate Cellular Waste

The alternating hot and cold with cause vasodilation and vasoconstriction, allow the blood vessels and lymphatic system to drain. This delivers more nutrition to the cells, eliminates accumulated waste from the lymphatic system and cells, and over time encourages healthy cellular function and increased cellular metabolism.

Speedy Recovery

The constitutional is a special technique that can greatly improve recovery from a wide variety of acute and chronic illnesses. Constitutional hydrotherapy is a treatment that uses hot and cold applications with low-volt electrical sine-wave stimulation.

Application Method

Constitutional hydrotherapy is a fairly complex treatment and the treatment mechanics can only be mastered through repeated, supervised practice. Six important treatment variables that the naturopathic physician manipulates, within the context of the application applied to the body, in order to accomplish the treatment goal include temperature, timing (duration, frequency, an hour of the day), location, pressure or friction, the material used to cover the compress, and wetness. The ability to adjust these treatment variables appropriately to the individual patient, in order to best accomplish the treatment goal, is the art of the treatment application.

Your 1st Visit

Ideally, 24 hours prior to the treatment, three balanced meals and adequate water have been consumed.

  • No large meals or sugary foods/refined carbohydrates should be consumed immediately prior to treatment.
  • You may want to wear comfortable pants and bring an extra pair for after the treatment.
  • Females, wear a sports bra and bring an extra bra for post-treatment.
  • Remove metal jewelry and piercings before treatment, as they can interfere with sine wave application.
